  • Missing paintwork at the bottom of the bags ???

    Missing painting at the bottom of the doors ??? Hello, I noticed today that my 4 doors are not painted at the bottom (you can only see the gray primer, no color). Description of the place : When you open a door and look at the front side, where the snapper is for the lock, you can see a sheet about 10 cm wide, which goes from the top (window) to the bottom and is in principle the “floor” for the door. Laterally it is painted in car color bi But if you lay under the open door and look at the sheet metal, it is only primed and not painted. Is that normal? Does anyone else have that or is the door completely painted with you? I think that this is a reason for an advertisement, or ? Greeting Nik

  • Long-term experience Focus

    Hello everybody, have a question to the permanent focus driver. At the moment I have a Laguna 2 1.9 dCi, with which I am anything but satisfied. At the car almost everything has broken. If it is desired, I can tell the whole story. Now I want to buy a new (old) and have a Focus tournament EZ. 05/2004 25,000 Km 10,000 Eur in mind. Now I have read, the focus should be very reliable in itself (is already good). But in the g bleak report also said that the flaws on the things are fast wearable couplings, disruptive electrics and tear-like timing belts. For 2 of these 3 reasons I want to sell my Laguna and I am now a little unsure if I would not exchange one overleaf for another. How are your experiences? I am grateful for every answer.

  • Focus for approx. 600€ Purchase recommendation

    Hi guys, I’ve been driving Ford Escort so far but since the rust has now defeated my poor Essi and I don’t get a TÜV anymore I need a new one. It should be as young as possible, should run for a long time. Besides, it should already have some performance, I don’t know the focus at all. With what can you have some fun? Is this to be paid? Budget: approx. up to 700€, is searched in the area Heilbronn/Stuttgart. Here are a few questions: 1. Which performance brings I don’t want to exaggerate it but he should pull well. 2. Which model would you recommend? 3. What kind of equipment? I don’t need Supercomfort 4. What is to be considered at the Focusl? – Rust? – Running performance? – any special things 5. What kind of mileage is possible with good care? is there already experience-worthy? It’s just as I need a relatiev new, reliable car. It doesn’t have to be a tuner, it doesn’t have to be a 4/5 doorr. must last a long time with good care of course. I would be super grateful for a few answers. Greetings Chris

  • Mazda 6 – What impression do you have?

    Hello, I now had a Mazda 6 1.8 combo with comfort equipment as a replacement car, because I had my Xedos in the workshop. The ABS sire at the front left was moved and led to errors in the ABS system. Did someone actually have this before? I really can’t explain how this can happen. Well but back to the topic. So I found the Mazda 6 already great. First of all it looks great. I was also enthusiastic about the chassis. I was really great on the road. D he steering is very direct, but I don’t feel like a disadvantage, you can get used to it. The station wagon is nice and spacious and there is enough space on the back seat. The 1.8er with 120hp does not necessarily tear shreds out of the asphalt but is sufficiently strong. What shocked me is the comfort equipment. That’s quite thin. Not even eFh back. What really creeped me was the plastic steering wheel, but for the higher equipment there is then a leather steering wheel – a This makes me disgusted, even if I have to drive a barrenly equipped pass. Also details like e.g. 2 illuminated make-up mirrors are missing (well that’s not what I need in the Xedos so I miss it) Is there actually in the higher equipment lines? I felt a bit unhappy about the heating/ventilation and radio control. It steers too much off. And then there was this silver-colored center console which with the car with about 7,000km nevertheless not This didn’t leave a particularly good impression. All in all, a successful car, except for the somewhat unsuccessful operation, a few missing details and the somewhat inferior-looking center console. Well, it’s not a Xedos, but a consideration is worth the car – especially if I need a Pampers bomber. What kind of impression do you have about the Mazda 6?

  • Buy Mazda 626 Coupe 90/91

    Hello Mazda fans, I would like to buy a 90’s or 91’s Mazda 626 Coupe within the next 4 weeks. Either the GD 2.2 116 hp or the GT 2.0 140 hp. The 2.2 is a 12V, the 2.0 a 16V, right? What about the two engine variants with durability, performance and consumption? Is it true that the 2.2 is a Mazda own development (taken over by Ford for the sample 1) and with the 2.0 Ford the hands in the game had? Are there weak points with these according to ADAC very good results. Awesome vehicles? I am looking for a well-kept max. from 2nd hand. Big thanks!

  • Mazda 6 Problem

    Hi guys ! I have a question to all Mazda 6 owners. I bought myself 10 days ago new Mazda 6. Last week I noticed when you let go of the steering wheel pulls the car to the right the same thing happened while braking and starting is not strong but always my 11 year old Mondeo did not have the problem.I was at the dealer there the track was adjusted again. According to the settings everything should be great but not. Dealer statement here:”it’s all with some cars are more sensitive than the others when it comes to road inclinations etc. What do you say about it.Has someone had a similar problem? If so please give you trouble and write couple words. MfG Entlöschter M6 driver

  • Has anyone ever driven the new M6 combi?

    Moin together, maybe someone has already driven the new Mazda 6 station wagon and can describe his impressions of space/room feeling in particular? Since now sliding doors are no longer absolutely necessary, I would like to switch from a van to a station wagon or SUV. Especially important to me are the space conditions in the rear (fair itself 1.98 m and the children are not exactly small with 1.95 + 1.75m). The space conditions in the new V70 (our previous favorite) are unfortunately at full speed. So far, the space conditions were only good enough in the rear of the Santa Fe, Outlander/C crosser. Falled out already Tiguan, X3 and old C5 combi, as well as the old V70. Passat, Mondeo, new C5, and A6 are still in sight. Greetings from the north Marten

  • Fiesta at speeding overturned

    Hello, I have a question that I put in the round like this, I don’t really know much about cars and it happened to me today something so stupid that I never believed it would happen to me. So I drive a Ford Fiesta 1.3 with 60 hp that I bought again on Friday. It’s a new car. So I drove over the highway today, had the music turned up loud, so I didn’t hear the engine noise anymore, that’s why I think it’s also passing I would have heard that before. I speed up on the acceleration strip and next to me on the track one drives a bit staggered next to me and I want to get in front of him, but he doesn’t go from the gas and I watch him all the time in the side mirror and don’t look at the rev indicator, and in the 3rd course he keeps speeding up and he still doesn’t walk from the gas so I can get over and somehow I was on 130 and suddenly it’s as if the car wasn’t at all I saw that the rev indicator was in the red area. I immediately kicked the clutch and switched it up. Now my question is, did I see the engine with it for a long time or is that not so bad, because it is new. I would be happy about an info. Thanks already in advance. Dear greetings Tobi

  • Buying advice Kia pro_cee’d
